Long story short. Came from the Plumbing world now in pressure washing. I’ve applied everything I learned from Plumbing over to pressure washing been at it for about eight months and currently averaging around 70 K a month in revenue the two main differences between pressure washing and plumbing are the number one. The average ticket is much lower plus you don’t get those big one off jobs. They just don’t exist and number two. The efficiency is much higher because most of your jobs are actually longer time frames than in Plumbing, which makes your hourly rate feel really low coming from Plumbing the hard part about that is that the cost to acquire a customer is the same as Plumbing it’s two to $300 before you get a job sold and then my average ticket is only $1000 instead of $2800 like it wasn’t Plumbing. I’m thinking about taking a page from the pest control playbook and switching the business to a monthly recurring maintenance plan model where it’s 250 to get started and then a small monthly payment depending on the services you want for either come out by annually or annually or quarterly to perform your services, thinking about pitching it as a constant state of Clean why wait for your house to get dirty when we can just keep it clean for you all year round. There’s a ton of advantages to doing this one. It makes scheduling way simpler two it fills in all the gaps during slow times three actually make more money over the course of a year from every single customer than if I were to do a one time service for it’s much easier for the customer because they only have to call us out one time and go through the sales process one time and take out one time versus every single year it’s also better for the customer in the fact that it’s cheaper monthly payments spreads that cost out over the course of a year however there’s one big problem upfront cash flow when you start selling monthly membership plans rather than Big one off services I think I have enough cash to float us to the point where we’re at break even but if I don’t, and we get to that point, I don’t know where I would get more cash from without having to switch back to one off services. There’s also a few unknown of what percent of monthly plans will I sell over one time services? My gut is telling me go for it and you’ll figure it out. My brain is telling me hold on. Wait a minute. Think about it. What do you guys think?

@Bohannan McKenzie that’s what I landed on. Plus I can create a sign up fee or a crazy discount for first time service if they sign up for the recurring membership. Gotta math those out and test.

My every day tasks that I must be consistent with to win. BTW, I’m really bad at this.

@Bohannan McKenzie Agreed.

Also just finished Rocket Fuel. Very good. Helped me understand some of my success thus far.
